About this ebook
Seine River Mysticism explores the profound spiritual connection between the Seine River and the Celtic tribes who once thrived along its banks. The book argues that the river was not merely a physical feature but a powerful symbol of life, death, and rebirth in Celtic religious thought. Intriguingly, archaeological findings reveal votive offerings deposited in the Seine, suggesting ritualistic practices and the river's sacred status, challenging the notion that ancient religious sites were solely temples or formal sanctuaries.
The book progresses logically, starting with an introduction to pre-Roman Celtic society and their beliefs. It then examines archaeological evidence of ritualistic activities along the Seine, followed by an exploration of Celtic mythology and folklore related to rivers and water spirits. Finally, it traces the river's influence on later spiritual traditions, including early Christian beliefs. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the Seine's enduring spiritual legacy, making it valuable for those interested in Celtic history, religion, and the cultural history of France.
